Metasexy is a production which takes a closer look at portrayals and perceptions of the female figurein popular culture, and the possibilities for other ways of performing and understanding femininity and sexualized aesthetics. In this production, the choreographer Inés Belli continues her exploration of expectations and norms through a complex and surprising web of references. The production navigates through references from jazz dance, commercial dance and popular culture in negotiations between the body and gender, objectification and subjectivity, the performer and the spectator. In this negotiation, in the blur, in the glitch, is a space of possibility for other forms of awarness that can change perceptions and understandings of femininity and sexualized aesthetics.
